No, in the first sentence of my response below I indeed identified the
class not found exception as the most obvious problem -- you didn't
mention that when you posted the stack trace in your original posting,
so I didn't know if you were aware of it (I don't know you, as far as I
know you might be a total newbie.) That you would get such an egregious
OOTB error for a vanilla install of Roller caused me to think you might
have just dumped the WAR on Tomcat without configuring a database or the
roller-custom.properties file and a random error was popping up as a
result. So maybe you were unaware of the installation guide, causing me
to ask about that. Further if you hadn't installed a database, I wanted
to refer you to the simple Derby that you can use in your initial
prototyping of Roller (I didn't want you to run away from testing Roller
on account of needing to install a more complex DBMS, nor did I want you
have have to work with the release version of the guide which doesn't
cover Derby much leaving you with a lot of wasted time guessing
configuration.)
But Ubuntu 8.04 is five years old (reaching end of life in 2011:
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Releases), and I'm guessing, based on the
location of Tomcat on your machine, that you installed Tomcat via sudo
apt-get install tomcat6 and not via a manual install of Apache Tomcat
from the Tomcat website. I would consider updating Ubuntu and trying
with a Tomcat 6 or 7 downloaded from the Apache Tomcat website to rule
out the problem being with the potentially un-updated Tomcat packages
Canonical provides for Ubuntu 8.

Hi,
I don't expect any problem with the database. I just think that Glen wants
me to try his newly written guide ;)
What I did so far is just a plain installation of tomcat on my ubuntu
machine (think its 8.04) then I did everything written in the installation
guide of roller upto the point where I got stuck. Maybe someone has a
similar installation, or something like that and had the same problem?
Maybe I put the properties file in the wrong directory?
Any help appreciated...
regards,
Martin

Why do you expect a problem with the database.
Java is indicating, that it does not find the custom logger Log4JLogger.
I am just not sure if this class is expected to be there or if the user
having this problem has configured himself to use this logger but has not
configured it correctly.

Hi Martin, clearly the class below is missing from the WAR that you
deployed on Tomcat -- I wonder why. Have you followed the installation
guide: http://www.apache.org/dist/roller/roller-5/v5.0.1/docs/?
At any rate, I suspect your roller-custom.properties hasn't been
populated or deployed to the tomcat_home/lib folder. Which database
are
you using to host the Roller data? Derby is easy to set up -- the
latest guide in trunk (OpenOffice format:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/roller/trunk/weblogger-docs/installguide/)
has specific Derby information I just added a few days ago.
HTH,
